This application is a CON of 10/610,325, filed on Jun. 30, 2003, now U.S. Pat. No. 7,198,409.
The present invention generally relates to holders for fiber optic connectors and more specifically relates to holders for fiber optic connectors which are protected by dust caps.
Fiber optic connectors include a polished end face, typically held by a ferrule, which permits positioning of the optical fiber held by the connector to receive and transmit signals another optical fiber or optical light source. It is desirable to keep these polished end faces as free of contaminants as possible to improve the transmission of light to and from the optical fiber held by the connector. Such contaminants which might adversely impact the transmission of light to and from the optical fiber include but are not limited to dust and finger prints.
Dust caps may be provided for connectors to protect the polished end face of the optical fiber. However, when such dust caps are in place, the connector is not capable of being received in known optical fiber adapters, such as those described in U.S. Pat. No. 5,317,663, and U.S. Pat. No. 6,347,888. The disclosures of these patents are incorporated herein by reference. A connector may be inserted into one of these known adapters for storage or pre-wiring of a cross-connection point, an interconnection point or some other type telecommunications switching or connection equipment with the dust cap removed. While the adapters might provide some protection from contaminants to a single connector inserted into an adapter, these adapters are not as effective as a dust cap in protecting the polished end face.
It is desirable to improve the known methods and apparatus for protecting the polished end face of a fiber optic connector within telecommunications equipment.
The present invention relates to a fiber optic connector holder sized to fit within an opening for mounting a fiber optic adapter. The fiber optic connector holder is configured to permit a fiber optic connector with a dust cap positioned about a ferrule and a polished end face of an optical fiber held by the ferrule to be inserted within and releasably held by the connector holder.
The present invention further relates to a system for holding fiber optic connectors including a fiber optic connector holder mounted within an opening in a bulkhead for mounting a fiber optic adapter. The fiber optic connector holder is configured to receive a fiber optic connector with a dust cap mounted about a ferrule and polished end face of an optical fiber held by the ferrule. The connector holder may be removed from the bulkhead and a fiber optic adapter may be mounted within the same opening.
The present invention also relates to a method of holding an optical fiber connector to a bulkhead, when the fiber optic connector includes a dust cap mounted about a ferrule and a polished end face of an optical fiber held by the ferrule.
The accompanying drawings, which are incorporated in and constitute a part of the description, illustrate several aspects of the invention and together with the detailed description, serve to explain the principles of the invention. A brief description of the drawings is as follows:
Reference will now be made in detail to exemplary aspects of the present invention which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. Wherever possible, the same reference numbers will be used throughout the drawings to refer to the same or similar parts.
Fiber optic cables may be terminated with fiber optic connectors such as connector 100 shown in
Often a dust cap 104 may be placed about ferrule 102 and the polished end face of the optical fiber to protect the polished end face from contamination from dust, fingerprints or other items which might degrade optical signal transmission. While it is known to store these in known optical fiber adapters until the fiber within the attached cable is needed to connect to another fiber optic cable or optical signal equipment, such storage is less than ideal as adapters do not seal the polished end face from contamination as well as dust cap 104 securely fit and held about ferrule 102 of connector 100. Known adapters do not permit insertion of connector 100 which still has dust cap 104 in place about ferrule 102 and the polished end face of the cable.
Referring now to
Main housing 12 also includes a bottom 30 with a keyway 28 to receive a keyed extension of connector 100 to consistently orient connector 100 for insertion into cavity 14. Opposite bottom 30 is an open top closed a cover 32. This is shown in more detail in
Referring now to
Referring now to
As shown, connector 100 and holder 10 are FC style. Connector 100 and holder 10 may conform to other styles and formats of electrical connectors and adapters without straying from the spirit of the present invention.
Referring now to
Referring now to
Inner housing 34 is configured to permit insertion within slots 42 of cavity 14 of main housing 12 in either of two orientations. A pair of edges 66 of cross piece 50 properly position inner housing within cavity 14 with regard to cover 32 and main housing 12 so that opening 38 is aligned to receive dust cap 104.
Referring now to
At the top of slot 63 is a positioning surface 61 which cooperates with one of edges 66 of inner housing 34 to position inner housing 34 within cavity 14 so that opening 38 of inner housing 34 is aligned with opening 16. When assembled as connector holder 10, positioning surface 43 of main housing 12 and positioning surface 61 of cover 32 cooperate to engage both edges 66 of inner housing 34. Slot 42 of main housing 12 and slot 63 of cover 32 cooperate to capture flanges 52 of inner housing 34.
Referring now to
Open end 18 of connector holder 10 is inserted through opening 84 until a pair of sides 86 of opening 84 engage ramped surfaces 80 of spring clips 22. Continued insertion of connector holder 10 will cause bulkhead sides 86 to deflect spring clips 22 inward toward sides 26. Bulkhead sides 86 will eventually pass beyond ends 78 of spring clips 22. Spring clips 22 will then spring back as shown in
Alternatively, flanges 24 may be configured to include a fastener opening so that connector holder 10 can be mounted within opening 84 by removable fasteners.
It is anticipated that bulkhead should be interpreted broadly enough to include a telecommunications installation where openings 84 for mounting adapters and connector holders are included into sliding adapter packs, such as described in commonly-owned U.S. Pat. No. 5,497,444. The disclosure of this patent is incorporated herein by reference. Bulkhead should also be interpreted broadly enough to include a single opening in a wall or panel, a face plate of a telecommunications module for cross-connecting or interconnecting multiple optical fiber cables, as well as other telecommunications installations where one or more adapters may be mounted within an opening 84.
Referring now to
The above specification, examples and data provide a complete description of the manufacture and use of the composition of the invention. Since many embodiments of the invention can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention, the invention resides in the claims hereinafter appended.
